My Canon PowerShot SD 750 won't turn on anymore. Battery is fully charged, was using it this morning until the memory card was full. Took it home, downloaded the pics to the PC, disconnected from the PC and received a 'Battery Pack' message. So, I charged the battery and now nothing. Is it just broke?

My Kodak m1093 is will not turn on. i tried charging the battery, as i though it was dead.

Canon eos rebel won't turn on, charged the battery, replace and it would turn on but if you turn it off it won't turn back on. Took the battery out and replaced it would turn on until you turn it off again, then it won't turn back on. What do you think?

Went through the same thing. Ended up sending it back to the Canon repair depot. Evidently this is a common and rather annoying problem with the Rebels main board power section It is covered under warranty so it is best to check for coverage and get ...

Batteries I bought my camera 3 days ago, used it once to take about 6 pictures yesterday, and the batteries went dead. I charged them according to the directions and now when I turn it on it reads a fully charged battery until I try to take a pic, then a message appears reading "battery depleted" and it turns off. It is brand new and only used once, what could it possibly be?

I have the Canon SD4000 IS. Every time I try to go to view my pictures on the camera it lets me look at a few and then it just turns off. I've turned off the auto shut down thing and it only happens when I'm trying to look at pictures. It's fully charged (I charged it all night). And I just got it yesterday for Christmas. Please help me fix it. Thank you.

Your problem is very simple to fix :) if you follow the steps I'm giving you below. First, i have to ask you, the memory card you put in it, was it a new one? Most likely not and it most likely had some pictures on it. When you put a used memory card ...

I'm trying to charge my Canon battery for my Rebel XTI camera. I have a Canon Battery Charger for LC E5. The Battery pack is LP-E5. The battery fits into the charger and a red light comes on. It doesn't flash. It remains constant. I've had it in the charger for 4 hours, and it doesn't turn green. Is the battery fully charged if there's a constant red light and no green light? Thank you.

Yes. There should be a constant green light when it is completely charged.What does the battery status show when plugged to the camera? If it show full then then there is problem with the charger not the battery.ThanksKindly r ...
